Flamborough railway station

Flamborough railway station was located in the village of Marton, and was originally named thus. It was situated on the Yorkshire Coast Line from Scarborough to Hull and was opened on 20 October 1847 by the York and North Midland Railway. However, there were several other railway stations also called Marton, so on 1 July 1884 the North Eastern Railway renamed it after the village of Flamborough several miles away.
The station was opened by the York and North Midland Railway in October 1847. It was on the last section of the Hull to Scarborough line to be opened; Hull to Bridlington had been achieved in October 1846, and southwards from Seamer to Filey was in use by the same month. The station was located immediately north of the gated level crossing that spanned the road from Marton, and had a G T Andrews designed building. The extra effort put into Flamborough station was due to the influence of the Yarburgh family of nearby Sewerby Hall, who used the station. It was located 33 miles 31 chains north of Hull and 16 miles 47 chains south of Seamer.
